living next door to a fraternity. the outrageous behavior caught on camera. ♪ got to give it up ♪ and pharrell not giving up anything in court. the superstar taking the stand in the "blurred lines" trial claiming he didn't rip off the marvin gaye classic. and wait until you hear how much money the smash hit song really earned. ♪ got to give it up got to give it up ♪ ♪ keep on dancing ♪ you just can't help but move and groove to marvin gaye. that's the song at the center of that "blurred lines" trial. we'll have more on that ahead. and we have so much to get to. this morning that massive storm sweeping across the country dropping snow from texas to new york, six states declaring an emergency. more than 2400 flights canceled. >> ginger and our team on that. in a minute. but we begin with that breaking news. look at these dramatic pictures. right here. the u.s. ambassador to south

korea, mark lippert, viciously slashed at a breakfast speech. north korea is praising the attack as the ambassador recovers in a hospital this morning. abc's terry moran has all the latest. good morning, terry. >> reporter: good morning, george. this was a truly frightening attack raising real questions about security for american diplomats around the world. an undefended ambassador. the assailant walking up to him armed with a ten-inch knife. and out for blood. it was a very close call. >> i'm bleeding here. i'm bleeding here. i need an ambulance fast. get me to the hospital. >> reporter: this is u.s. ambassador mark lippert moments after being attacked by a knife-wielding korean nationalist and this is the man named by police as kim ki-jung who shouted north and south korea should be reunified, slashing away with this knife, before he was wrestled to the ground. ambassador lippert, an iraq war veteran defended himself from the attack. lippert was rushed to a hospital where he was treated for deep cuts to his face, his arm and

his hand. he's had 80 stitches. he's in stable condition and is expected to remain in the hospital for the next few days. lippert is close to president obama. advising him during the 2008 campaign, then moving to the white house to serve on the national security council staff before becoming ambassador to south korea. tensions between north and south korea have spiked this week, as the u.s. and south korea conduct annual military exercises in north korean media have issued dire threats in response. the attacker was still shouting against those joint exercises as he was led away by police strapped to a gurney. ambassador lippert kept his cool throughout the incident. shortly after he was stitched up tweeting, doing well and in great spirits. and though north korea praised this assault as a knife attack of justice there's no evidence of any involvement there. the real question now, how did a guy with a knife like that get so close? robin. >> and people want the answer to that question as you know, terry, thank you. now to that winter blast stretching from dallas to new

england this morning affecting more than 90 million americans. school has been canceled for more than a million students. and more than 2,000 flights canceled already. our extreme team, you know they're tracking it all, and ginger starts us here off in times square. ginger. >> right in times square where the flakes have become quite fat. we've got that snow globe effect and we just transitioned to snow. but there are parts of kentucky that has more than 20 inches. let's look at the radar long island will get some of the heavier totals but some of the heftiest south and west of us, frozen precipitation for 1500 miles. so many folks, including those in louisville this morning, under a winter storm warning and that's where we find our alex perez. alex. >> reporter: hey, good morning, ginger. more than 1.5 million students home from school today because of the weather. here in louisville they got more than 8 inches and once the snow started it seemed it would never stop. overnight,

a traffic nightmare. motorists stranded for hours. backup 20 miles long. one driver tweeted i haven't moved since 9:00 p.m. last night. the nation guard called in to help. moving drivers to warming stations to get food and water. in illinois, this semi lost control and ended up in the median. whiteout conditions left wreck after wreck. melting snow making for mayhem. >> look how fast that is. >> reporter: in west virginia, this bridge washed away in just seconds. chunks of ice filling rivers, and in ohio, ice the size of mattresses ending up on the road and in dallas -- >> we were on the tarmac for about 3 1/2 hours. >> reporter: -- passengers fuming in ft. worth after a few inches of snow left them stranded, their flight later canceled, leaving them to seek shelter at the airport. and no relief for passengers just yet.

already more than 2400 flights canceled this morning and that number only expected to go up as the day goes on. now let's go to rob marciano who is in philadelphia this morning. hey, rob. >> reporter: hi, alex. flights canceled here in philadelphia. but we come to you from the abc news road cam at the base of the art museum steps here in philadelphia. take a look. better known as the "rocky" steps and philadelphia will be fighting against mother nature. they have 350 plows and salt trucks at the ready. look ahead and you can see that the roads here, the ben franklin parkway is at least for now wet but the sides of the roads, the grassy area beginning to see snow accumulate. they couldn't pretreat the roads because it was raining last night. the plan of attack is to salt after accumulation begins and 4 to 8 expected. they've only seen 4.8 for the entire year. they're probably get that today. back to you in new york. >> thanks, rob. so many people are doubling what they've already had this season. a lot of folks back to even louisiana, arkansas, talking

about frozen precipitation. new orleans this morning dropped almost 20 degrees in just 50 minutes. that's how powerful this cold front is. let's go right back to the map, and you can see those temperature differences. 70 in mobile. jackson, mississippi, 34. so you know it's happening. that cold air coming behind and that's going to be the frozen precipitation. it'll come not just as snow but ice and snow. the heaviest snow falling from baltimore back to the west through west virginia. i'm making a declaration because it's so cold, i'm wearing boots and leg warmers until it goes above 40, all right. george. >> okay, ginger, now get inside. we're going to turn now to the boston marathon trial that opened yesterday. with a stunning admission. the defense said that dzhokhar tsarnaev set the bombs but argued his brother was the mastermind and manipulator. abc's brian ross is covering the trial in boston. brian, we also heard emotional testimony from a string of victims. >> reporter: that's right, george, good morning, this city is reliving the horror of those attacks with often tearful testimony and dramatic new videos not made public until now.

more new, disturbing videos are expected today of the two explosions on that festive spring race day. for the first time the jury saw this footage of the first bomb blast near the marathon finish line and then in the distance, the second, much more powerful blast. the chaos and the carnage in the aftermath caught on tape by a wounded spectator. >> get her out of here. >> reporter: frantic emergency workers tried to treat the most seriously injured. >> you're okay. >> reporter: inside a nearby sports store, stunned and wounded spectators stumble in and the store manager uses running clothes to fix a tourniquet on the leg of a badly injured woman. others ripped clothes off the rack to be used as tourniquets for the many left fighting for their lives that day, are now attending this trial including marc fucarile who lost his right leg. >> reliving the situation and the circumstance that happened that day when we mention the ones we lost that day. the ones that really should be remembered.

>> reporter: in court, dzhokhar tsarnaev's lawyer judy clarke flatly stated it was him, admitting he was responsible for the senseless, horrific, misguided acts, but she pointed to this video of tsarnaev and his older brother tamerlan about to plant their bombs to claim her client was only following the path created by his older brother later killed in a police shootout. it's a strategy to persuade the jury that the younger brother should get life in prison, not the death penalty. but prosecutors this morning will continue to make the case that tsarnaev was not some misguided, misdirected adolescent but instead, a committed terrorist in his own right a soldier in a holy war, out to punish america. >> all right there, brian ross in boston, thank you. turn to dan abrams. what do you think of the strategy of the defense? >> it's kind of the only strategy. you've got video of him. you've got his scrawlings in the boat. there's almost no defense for him to suggest he didn't do it. you know, typically this would be the sort of case where you

might see the defendant say i'll plead guilty and i'll admit it, just take the death penalty off the table and in most cases prosecutors would accept that. not in this case. they're not taking the death penalty off the table for him. >> so, is it proper for them to say it's more of his brother's fault? >> not really. meaning as a legal matter, they can't say it's more his fault than it is mine. the judge has made that clear, too. the judge has said you're not going to be saying he's more at fault but what they can be saying is explaining how this all happened and that's what the defense is going to do. they're going to explain in their view why this happened, how this happened, but they have to be very careful about not doing exactly what you just said. >> the defense wanted to move it out of state. you think it was right that the judge says no here. >> it affected everyone. i mean, the notion that people in massachusetts were more affected by this than people in other places in the country -- look, if you had someone who you knew personally who was directly impacted by this, you're probably not going to be on this jury but, when you're talking about generally people knew

about the case, impacted by the case, this is a case that affected the country. >> okay, i know we'll be talking about this for days to come. thank you very much, dan. we're going to turn now to the latest fallout from the controversy over hillary clinton's e-mails. she responded overnight with a tweet saying she's asked the state department to publicly release her e-mails and this comes after a house committee investigating the benghazi terror attacks subpoenaed that personal e-mail account. jon karl joins us with the latest. which e-mails will the public see and when will we see them? >> reporter: george, this will basically be the honor system. the e-mails to be released will come from the 55,000 pages of e-mails mrs. clinton turned over to the state department late last year but, remember, those were e-mails that she and her team reviewed. she chose which of her e-mails to turn over to the state department. so, the bottom line is, people will have to trust that she has turned over all relevant official documents to the state department. as for when, the state department only will say it'll take some time to review the e-mails. i would expect this process to take months, not weeks. >> and, jon, there had been some

suggestions earlier that some laws may not have been fully followed, is that still the case? >> reporter: that's what the congress is investigating. it looks, the white house believes, if she did what she said she did she followed the letter of the law if not the spirit of the law. >> jon karl, thanks very much. let's go to amy with the other top stories. big scare for airline passengers. >> that's right. an emergency on the runway in denver. passengers on a us airways forced to evacuate after smoke filled the cabin and the terrifying moments that followed. here's abc's david kerley. >> reporter: they didn't make it to the gate after landing. passengers and crew, more than 160 of them, using emergency slides to get off this jetliner in denver. >> what the [ bleep ] is going on. >> reporter: that's brooks robinson who recorded his slide out of the airbus jet. >> we had to evacuate off the airplane. >> reporter: the u.s. air/ american airlines flight from charlotte just landed in denver. controllers were surprised.

>> we do have people exiting the aircraft down slides. >> reporter: passengers say the pilot hit the brakes hard when they landed and then the cabin started filling with smoke. >> i can't really pinpoint where it came from. it was like a light fog at first and then it started to thicken a little bit. >> reporter: with smoke in his cabin the pilot declared an emergency. >> they came over the loudspeaker and just screaming, evacuate, evacuate, evacuate. >> it's really a pilot's worst nightmare to have to deal with either fire or smoke in an airplane. >> reporter: there was one minor injury. firefighters went through the cabin looking for hot spots but didn't find any. this morning, still a mystery what caused all that smoke that led to this emergency evacuation on the snowy denver tarmac. david kerley, abc news, washington. >> our thanks to david for that. new protests in ferguson, missouri, overnight, following that scathing report on the police department. at least four demonstrators were arrested for blocking traffic outside police headquarters. hours after the announcement that the officer who fatally shot michael brown will not face federal charges. meanwhile, in response to the justice department's report that found systemic bias against

african-americans, the mayor says a police official has been fired for sending racist e-mails to others, two others are under investigation. well, a superbug linked to a contaminated medical instrument found at a second major hospital in los angeles. four patients were infected at cedars-sinai. 71 others may have been exposed. the bacteria cre which is resistant to antibiotics can kill up to 50% of infected patients. two patients died in a similar outbreak at ucla medical center. well, president obama's signature health care law is now in the hands of a divided supreme court. the four liberal justices seem ready to side with the administration's claim that it is legal to use federal subsidies to make health insurance more affordable but it's unclear if any conservative justice will join them. and finally, next time you go on one of those safari parks, do yourself a favor, lock your car doors or this could happen. [ screaming ]

>> lock the door. >> oh, my gosh, i didn't know they could do that. >> yep, they can do that apparently. that lion opened the car door with its teeth. this happened in south africa. thankfully the girl in the backseat had very quick reflexes. she quickly slammed the door shut. if she hadn't, not sure they would be laughing about that today. i mean, i didn't know they could do that either. >> who knew? >> yeah. >> that is terrifying. >> wow, auto lock. >> yes. >> yeah, you should lock your door anyway. that's like having the window down asking for trouble. what do you have for us, michael? >> i have a little something about some music there, robin. pharrell williams is arguably the most popular musician in america but the superstar was on a different kind of stage wednesday testifying in that "blurred lines" trial. abc's brandi hitt has the story. ♪ blurred lines ♪ >> reporter: this morning a clearer look at the making of "blurred lines," from one of the music masterminds behind the 2013 megahit. pharrell williams taking the

stand wednesday admitting, i must have been channeling that feeling, that late-'70s feeling while writing the hit he claims in less than an hour. but the prolific producer maintaining he and co-writer robin thicke did not rip off marvin gaye's 1977 hit "got to give it up." when asked do you think "blurred lines" has the feel of "got to give it up," the singer adamantly responding, feel, not infringement. williams also testifying that at no point in the song's production did gaye's classic come to mind. >> if jurors believe that he was not inspired by marvin gaye, but rather by, you know, the songs he heard in the 1970s growing up, you know, they may have a chance at prevailing. >> reporter: but when a musicologist brought in by gaye's family later played stripped-down snippets of the williams testified it sounds like you're playing the same thing. that's the argument being made by the children of the late soul legend who want in on a piece of

"blurred lines" profits. ♪ if you can't hear ♪ >> reporter: profits to the tune of more than $16.6 million. earnings typically kept secret but exposed in court tuesday. thicke taking $5.6 million. williams earning 5.1 million, and more than 700,000 going to rapper t.i., who's expected to take the stand today before the case finally goes to the jury. for "good morning america," brandi hitt, abc news, los angeles. >> a lot of money. >> a lot of money. >> that's what they're fighting over. all right there, michael. ginger back inside snowing in some really frigid weather. >> everywhere. that's the thing. so many people dealing with it this morning and then you have the freeze thaw and that creates ice jams on the river. big-time flooding reported yesterday in kentucky, west virginia and pennsylvania. that that was shutting down roads and that we talk about that arctic blast. it's actually 30 plus below in parts of minnesota this morning. actual air temperature, 6 below in minneapolis, 11 below,

is for their children. >> so where does the law stand on this? we've seen the disclaimers. does that protect them? >> it's tough to stop the apps because the apps themselves are protected in a sense immune from prosecution for the offensive content their users post so, while parents may be saying, well, we can't get the apps and website, you can get the bully. laws are stepping up to say, if you bully online you could be subject to criminal harassment, stalking and some states have gone further passing laws saying to bullies, if you're caught bullying you could be subject from anything from suspension to jail time. >> of course, that would require lifting the veil of anonymity. but, can you do that in the apps? >> no, that's going to be tough to do. that's why the parent/kid connection is so important. getting a sense of who the tormentors should be. and trying to figure that out. >> what should parents do? >> you have to question your kids. make sure, you know, they're not going to be open and honest about bullying at all times so they might be embarrassed about it let them know you're there to help them not judge and

don't respond to cyberbullies. >> don't respond? >> don't respond. that just fuels the fire. a lot of parents, their knee-jerk reaction, go online and launch an attack themselves. third, monitor your kids. this goes for parents of bullied children but also parents who suspect their kids are bullied. you have to put a stop to the behavior no matter which side of the tharg amount or issue you fall on. >> okay. >> ericka brings up a good point. you don't respond. you tell school authorities and authorities and they can take up the baton and say let's look at this and let's see if we need to contact police and that's the message. you bully online you could be subject to prosecution. >> thanks very much. let's go to robin. >> that is great advice. i agree. do not respond. don't engage. but now to hilary duff opening up about her recent divorce saying she was too young when she got married. abc's abbie boudreau has that story for us. ♪ you could be my dirty secret ♪ >> reporter: this morning chart-topping singer and actress hilary duff, famous for her role on tv's "lizzie mcguire" and

jackman. oh but he plays a bad guy. >> yep. >> in the latest movie "chappie" that takes us to the not too distant future where a robotic police force is used to control crime. a computer engineer wants to help droids become more human and hugh's character vincent, he doesn't like that at all. >> not at all. >> take a look. >> last night he brought a droid in here and it was sent in -- have you seen this? do you know about this? >> i told him no. >> okay that's a lot worse than just failing to work. so let's use this situation to make certain other robot s >> do it. >> oh. welcome, hugh jackman, back to "good morning america." >> thank you. good to see you. >> everybody was -- everybody with their comments about your look but first of all, the accent. you were -- >> my real accent.

actually more than my real accent. i haven't played an australian since the movie "australia" so when they sent me the script i was actually reading through neill, i said i've never heard this before. it was like i'm mad as a frog in a sock. i was like -- i don't know if this is australian. oh it is. i find myself googling australian slang. >> have you been gone that long. >> i've been gone too long. i have a mate that does all that. full as a doctor's wallet. everything. >> it was beautiful. i have to tell you, really enjoyed watching it. i wasn't sure what to expect. tell everybody about the premise and the fact that i wasn't used to seeing you being the bad guy. >> yeah well you could have talked to my kids. that's pretty much me most days but, look when you're in a neill blomkamp movie and if you liked "district 9" you'll like "chappie." his movies are unexpected and changed the genre and the movie is placed in the not too distant future where police robots are taking over from humans and the

guy that creates that has created this purely artificially intelligent robot called chappie and i can tell you it's not one of those futuristic movies where the robots -- you fall in love with this character except mine. he thinks it's the worst thing that could ever happen. >> you talk about neill and his films are entertaining and make you think and feel and i did. i fell in love with chappie. >> i don't want to add took place but my wife cried at the end of the movie. in a way this robot which is -- when the robot is switched on for the first time it's like a pure innocent child. this blank slate so this robot is stolen by this gang and so put in this completely dysfunctional violent background and it's a bit of an argument about nature versus nurture. are we a product of our environment? or genetics. you fall in love with this character. >> yeah. your character, my goodness, you heard the comments from the crew members.

your hair -- >> didn't you love it? >> the blond tips -- >> blond tip, the mullet. business in the front, party in the back. everyone george you watch, he's going to start growing it out. it's going to happen. come on man. you know you love it. >> next time we do a dear me that's going to be the picture of george. you talk about your wife. throwback thursday and we had the first time you did an australian tv show -- >> oh my gosh. >> remember. >> corelli. >> let's see it. >> you're 28. 79 years for armed robbery. spent quite a bit of time inside haven't you. >> a bit of a mullet. >> 19 years between mullets. >> you met on the set, fell in love and got married. >> i was absolutely mad about her and absolutely embarrassed about it because it was my first job. she was a leading lady and

anyway it all turned out well 19 years later and better than ever. >> beautiful kids. >> she's watching right now. i love you, baby. >> so are we going to have wolverine -- can we have wolverine and ironman meet up? >> i would love that. >> spider-man is joined -- >> yeah. >> seemingly impossible is possible. so i would love that. can you speak to robert. put in a good word for me? >> i think i can do that. hugh always a delight. >> good to see you too. >> so much going on. thank you for making time for us and "chappie" opens nationwide tomorrow. coming up grammy award winning sisters mary mary performing live. ♪
